Lover's In The Night
We dance in shadows, silver and sleek,
Two hearts pulsing to the beat they seek.
Your lips taste like secrets, soft and bold,
In your arms, I forget what I’ve been told.
The moon is a spotlight, casting out sin,
Glittering echoes on ivory skin.
Leather and lace, perfume and wine,
The city fades—we blur the line.
No past, no name, no curtain call,
Just your breath rising, and mine to fall.
Diamonds shatter in the dark velvet sky,
We’re written in starlight, stitched in dream.
Every kiss is a flash of burning flame,
Dangerous, wicked, never tame.
Heaven’s jealous of this fire,
Hell can’t hold such high desire.
Whispers melt into primal rage,
Truth lives deep behind our eyes.
Chained to rhythm, drunk on sound—
We lose ourselves where love is found.
Tonight we’re gods, without the guilt,
Crushed we crash, in love we’re built.
Lovers in the night, never tame, never right.
